Cupcakes and Iced Air
January 9, 2011
We run though the frost
The sprinkles glancing off our smiles
Our laughs getting lost
My breath becomes visible in the iced air
We pause under a spruce
You brush the icing sugar of my eyelashes
My scarf falls loose
Blush brightens my cheeks
When the path diverges
Our fingers slide and unlock
Our differences converge
We are concluded
Like fresh cupcakes
We will never last
It’s the penalty the iced air takes
All we remember is the rush
